Fossils show how the complexity of living organisms has changed over time. gerobatrachus hottoni was a unique organism that lived during the permian period between ancient salamanders and ancient frogs. scientists have nicknamed this organism the “frogamander” because it is believed to be a common ancestor of both modern frogs and salamanders. which type of fossil is gerobatrachus hottoni most likely to be? intermediary phylogenic transitional index mark this and return

The correct answer is transitional.  

Gerobatrachus refers to an extinct genus of amphibamid temnospondyl, which thrived in the initial Permian, that is, about 290 mya, in the region, which is now known as Baylor County, Texas. The transitional form of fossils are those that demonstrate the intermediate form between the two distinct living species, it could be in a form of an ancestor and its descendants. It is considered that the frogs and salamanders have evolved from a common ancestor of primitive amphibian tetrapod subclass known as Temnospondyli.
